Do you have more header information than that?  I mean, full headers
with all the Received: lines in them?

The admin contact for ulster.net is andyh@ulster.net.  Their terms of
service (TOS) web page lists admin@ulster.net as the contact.  Their TOS
prohibits spamming.

If you have a References header, they may have a log that allows them to
track it down.

If you have any other information, no matter how cryptic, post it and
send it to ulstern.net.  I also suggest writing to Joann Halpern (who I
assume is a victim) and ask that if she still has anything, or gets
anything in the future from your alter-ego, to send it to you with full
headers.
